Part III
During the quarter ended September 30, 1995, the Company made two significant
business acquisitions. The Company has had to devote a significant amount of
time during its first fiscal quarter and subsequently, to the due diligence,
accounting, Form 8-K requirements and transitional issues related to these
acquisitions, in addition to work on completion of its year-end audit. The
Company has also had to perform significant research and work on the complex tax
issues and disclosures for the quarter ended September 30, 1995 related to the
acquisitions.

<PAGE>
The Company expects a significant change in its results of operations
for the first quarter of fiscal 1996 compared to the same period of the prior
fiscal year. However, because the Company and its independent certified public
accountants are currently researching and evaluating certain complex accounting
issues which may have a significant impact on the results of operations, the
actual results of operations for the quarter ended September 30, 1995 cannot be
reasonably determined at this time.
